About This Activity
A full-day tour from Split to Plitvice Lakes National Park is one of the most popular day trips in Croatia, covering approximately 260 km each way through the stunning Croatian countryside. Multiple tour operators offer this excursion, combining comfortable coach travel with a guided experience of Europe's most remarkable lake system.
The journey takes approximately 3.5 to 4 hours each way, with the reward being around 4 hours exploring the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors walk along wooden boardwalks past 16 interconnected lakes and countless waterfalls, including Veliki Slap — Croatia's tallest waterfall at 78 metres. Most tours include a boat ride across Lake Kozjak and a panoramic electric train ride through the park.
Tour packages typically include round-trip coach transport with hotel pickup in Split, while park admission is usually purchased separately. Booking in advance is essential during peak season (June–September) as daily visitor numbers are capped and tickets frequently sell out.
This full-day excursion is perfect for visitors based on the Dalmatian coast who want to experience Plitvice Lakes without the hassle of arranging their own transport and navigation to the inland national park.
